(AN: for those that DESPISE Aki being called Akiza, I apologize but I am doing this so that I can have those that go by only the dubbed version to enjoy this fanfic as well)

Trauma

"Luna, Leo, something just came to my mind, why are you so calm over what happened to you?" Yusei said.

"what?" Luna asked, startled.

"you almost dying." Akiza said before Yusei could reply.

"Oh…" Luna said, looking down.

"Guys, I have something to confess." Rose said, looking a little guilty now.

"What is it?" Akiza asked.

"I had kept Leo and Luna a secret from you guys, they'd been here for over six months now, trying to get over the trauma of what happened. They didn't want you guys to worry." Rose confessed.

Akiza looked at the twins, Luna was shaking slightly now.

"You two…" she said softly before she reached to place a hand on Luna's shoulder. But when she made contact, Luna screamed and curled up beside Leo.

"Please Leo, keep them away!" Luna cried out.

"Luna was completely devastated by what happened, it's a miracle her sanity is still intact." Junk said. "She was just starting to begin acting normal just a few days ago."

"Luna, listen to me, You are safe here, no one is after you." Leo said.

"I am surprised that you're handling this well." Yusei said.

"Trust me, I am just as shaken, but after seeing mother die six years ago right in front of my eyes, I know what to do to keep calm." Leo said as he hugged his sister who began crying.

"So strange that the little one had behaved so normal a moment ago…" Sora said, poking her head from behind Akiza's shoulder.

"Sora, please go to the back for a bit." Akiza asked.

"As you wish my lady." Sora said before doing what she was asked.

"So, know who was responsible for what happened?" Yusei asked.

"I got a good idea, but to think that he is in the human world…" Leo said.

"Who?" Akiza asked.

"Axora." Leo said as his sister was still sobbing.

"WHAT! But that bastard is supposed to be dead!" Junk Synchron said.

"If Axora is in the human world, let alone alive, our world is in great danger." Leo said. "Before Me and Luna appeared, we have heard that the military was having a phenomenal amount of technical problems, as well as Sector Security…"

"I see. Think we should head back, Yusei." Akiza said.

"I think so, but not as ourselves, would draw too much attention." Yusei said.

"Luna's been terrified of going back home, I think she's better off staying here." Leo said, his face a little torn as his sister finally became calm once more.

"I'll take care of her," Sora said, reappearing. "As well as the Café,"

"You sure you can handle that?" Yusei said, skeptical.

"Of course, I may have been former royalty, but I wasn't a spoiled girl." Sora said.

"Okay then, but no clinging onto people, got it!" Akiza said, sighing.

"Yes ma'am." Sora said, bowing a little.

"Wouldn't mind her clinging onto me…" Leo said before Luna raised her head, giving him a death glare.

"I didn't mean it like that Luna!" Leo cried out before his twin sister slapped him.

"I apologize for my brother's behavior there, as he grew up, he became a bit perverted…" Luna said, sighing.

"Hey, you feel alright?" Akiza asked, perplexed by how Luna was acting normal again.

"Of course." Luna said, smiling.

"Okay…" Akiza said, straining a grin. Luna's became a little… odd… How she went from a traumatized state back to being like nothing has happened… How is that possible? the Redhead thought to herself.

"Akiza, mind if I join you and Yusei to the human world?" Rose asked.

"Why?" Akiza asked, confused now.

"I always wanted to see how the human world is like!" Rose said, smiling.

"Same here." Junk Synchron said.

"That's a problem…" Yusei said.

"Why?" Junk Synchron asked.

"Look at yourself." Akiza said. "Rose can get away with it, but you cant pose as a human!"

"ohh…" Junk Synchron said. "But I have this!"

The Synchron pulled out a contraption that looked like a cell phone.

"With this, I can become human!" he said before he pressed the button. The device beeped to life and began to glow. Everyone was watching in awe before Junk's device exploded, engulfing the tuner with it .

"Pathetic…" Leo said as the smoke cleared, revealing a soot covered Junk Synchron with a pile of ashes which was once the device he activated.

"Junky… I told you not to bring those things when we go out in public." Rose said as she sighed.

"I grabbed my bomb phone by mistake, THIS is the real one!" Junk said, pulling out another cell phone like device and activated it.

"TAKE COVER!" Rose cried as everyone else scrambled behind the bar that was next to the register.

There was a flash of light and then silence.

Yusei slowly raised his head above the counter, and saw what happened to his friend.

"It's safe." he said. Everyone started to raise their heads up from behind the counter then Rose got up and walked to Junk.

The Synchron was now about Yusei's height, with short jet black hair. He looked at Rose with his amber colored eyes through a pair of glasses. He had peach colored skin that was slightly pale. He was wearing a black tshirt and khaki shorts with shoes that resembled the ones he had in his true form. He was also wearing the same white scarf.

"Well?" Junk said, shrugging. Rose laughed and kissed him, before realizing something, breaking the kiss.

" JUNKY, YOU GOT A MOUTH!" Rose said in shock.

"what, thought this was an illusion?" Junk Synchron asked as he squeezed Rose's butt, which prompted a quick slap from his girlfriend.

"I did." Leo said, raising his hand.

"Same here." Akiza said.

Eliddan and Eliss raised their hands as well.

"Me too." Rose said before kissing Junk Synchron on the lips passionately for a moment. "you got no clue how much I dreamed of doing that."

"Got a point." Junk said.

"You need a name." Akiza said.

"Say what?" Junk Synchron said.

"You need a new name for your human form." Yusei said.

"OHHH…" Junk Synchron said.

"How about Rusty?" Leo asked.

"I'M NOT A PET!" the Synchron barked, pulling Leo's cheeks.

"OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWW!" Leo said as the Tuner pulled.

"How about… Ivan?" Rose asked.

Junk Synchron grinned at that name. " I like the ring of it. Ivan Thorn."

"Thorn?" Rose asked.

"Hey, thought you'd like that, since we're together and all that." Junk/Ivan said.

"Oh, I see, got me lost there for a moment, it's a perfect name for you." Rose said as she kissed him.

"Okay, that's one matter taken care of…" Yusei said. "The other is how to get back to the human world."

"That's a problem…" Leo said.

"Not really, I got something that will work." Ivan said. "It's back at my workshop."

This chapter maybe smaller than the others but it's important none the less.

I decided of having some of the gang go to the human world, but then I realized that one of the characters I wanted to go will be out of place. Enter Ivan Thorn. Ivan is basically going to replace Junk Synchron while in the human world, though they are the same guy. As I mentioned that I started to see the Synchron as a mad scientist, I decided to do something that'd be worthy of such, changing his appearance physically. The Ivan body is almost a real human body , but is artificially made. The only difference is that Ivan doesn't need to breathe, as Junk Synchron has no known way to breathe. Might have Rose be put in a dilemma where she has to choose between how Junk Synchron appears, in his monster form or as Ivan.

As stated by a sometimes aggravating reviewer (no offense), Leo and Luna acted way too calm while they were talking about someone trying to kill off the Signers, and almost succeeding with Luna and Leo with their automobile accident. So I decided to try to delve deeper to how they were able to act so calm.

I knew that having them completely over the trauma would been unnatural, and almost jumping the shark in the process, so I decided to have Luna remain traumatized, but in an unusual way, by being normal unless someone other than Leo touches her shoulder, which would then trigger the trauma(that will be explained in the story). I wanted Leo to at least act normal, but in order for that to happen, I needed to come up with an incident that can top a near death experience. The end result was Leo seeing his own mother die in front of his eyes(most likely murdered) and taking six years to recover from the incident.

And for the record, Junk Synchron HAS become somewhat perverted now, but he is NOT the character for Sexual humor. I should have given a big enough hint to as who it will be now.
